Linux-firm-ware is bloated (13M+) and designed with PC needs in mind
running everywhere. To make it slim to meet needs of mobile device,
here it’s a first effort to split this big package, see [1]. It has a
separate linux-firmware-extra package. For main package, I just put
the really needed stuff for current vertical/platforms by going
through changelog. I move OLPC XO stuff and Intel wifi/wimax stuff to
–extra while it’s used in netbook. With this, linux-firmware is just
1.3M, 10% small than before. BTW, this is just first step, next step
is to create vertical specific firmware package if needed.
Please have a review and let me know if anything missed that’s needed
for your platform.

Can we make David Woodhouse the maintainer of this package? He owns the
upstream anyway ;-)
